abstract={The case of a 13-year old boy with hepatic steatosis secondary to atypical antipsychotic use is described. The patient presented with a single episode of moderate-volume hematemesis and was found to have severe fatty infiltration and ductal dilatation of the liver. These changes were attributed to the patient¡¯s use of olanzapine for behavioral disorders related to autism spectrum disorder. The differential diagnosis of pediatric hematemesis is described, as well as the importance of considering adverse drug affects in patients maintained on olanzapine and other antipsychotics.},
